Direct versus indirect actions of ghrelin on hypothalamic NPY neurons.

OBJECTIVES:Assess direct versus indirect action(s) of ghrelin on hypothalamic NPY neurons. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Electrophysiology was used to measure ion channel activity in NPY-GFP neurons in slice preparations. Ca2+ imaging was used to monitor ghrelin activation of isolated NPY GFP-labeled neuron...
